DANGER of electrocution
•
Do not operate the appliance if it or the
power cable show signs of damage or
the appliance has been dropped.
•
Extension cables must be designed for
min. 10 amp.
•
Arrange the power cable and any ex-
tension cable so that nobody can tread
on them, trip or catch their foot.
•
Before connecting the appliance,
check that the temperature controller is
set to the "0" mark.
•
Connect the power plug only to a cor-
rectly installed, easily accessible
socket with an earthing contact with
voltage corresponding to the rating
plate. The wall socket must also be
easily accessible after connection.
•
Take care that the power cable is not
damaged by sharp edges or hot sur-
faces. Do not wind the power cable
around the appliance but into the base
of the heating unit.
•
Even after it has been switched off, the
appliance has not been completely dis-
connected from the mains. To do this,
remove the power plug.
•
When setting up the appliance, make
sure that the power cable is not
trapped or crushed.
•
When removing the power plug from
the wall socket, always pull the plug,
never the cable.
•
Disconnect the power plug from the
wall socket ...
... if there is a fault
... when you are not using the appli-
ance
... before you clean the appliance and
... during thunder storms.
•
This appliance is not designed to be
operated with an external timer or a
separate telecontrol system.
•
Do not connect another appliance with
a high power consumption to a socket
28
GB
on the same circuit. This way you will
avoid overloading the power network.
•
To avoid any risk, do not make modifi-
cations to the product. The power ca-
ble must not be replaced by a non-
specialist. Repairs must be carried out
by a specialist workshop or at the Serv-
ice Center.
DANGER of injury from burns
•
Danger to life from burns. Make sure
that children cannot pull the appliance
off the work surface by the power cable.
•
Danger from explosive deflagration.
Make sure you use oil that is fresh,
clean and suitable for a fondue. Old,
used or unsuitable oil may ignite even
at low temperatures. Should the oil
catch fire during the fondue, do not try
to put it out with water under any cir-
cumstances. Smother the fire with a
saucepan lid of appropriate size or a
woollen blanket.
•
Warning about burns caused by
splashes of hot liquid when dipping
food into the pot: dry food off before-
hand and protect hands and forearms
with oven gloves.
•
The stainless steel pot, splash guard
and fondue forks become very hot dur-
ing a fondue. Make sure you protect
your hands, e.g. with oven gloves, and
only grasp the fondue forks by the han-
dle.
•
To prevent it from overflowing during
heating, the stainless steel pot should
not be filled beyond the upper mark in-
dicating the maximum filling level.
•
Leave all parts to cool down fully be-
fore emptying, cleaning or moving the
pot.
•
Never move the heating unit while the
stainless steel pot is standing on it. The
pot might slip off.
